In the summer in summer, an ceiling fan creates the same effect as an air breeze. It helps evaporate perspiration on the skin and cools it by a couple of degrees. For the cooling effect the blades must blow air over people, usually by rotating clockwise from the bottom. The blades must spin with the upward-facing edges being the ones that are leading.

Most ceiling fans provide a button for switching direction. If the fan you have has this button, the fan can be used to warm your family in the winter. Warm air in a home rises, so it is possible to use the fan to pull warm air down from the ceiling toward people. Press the button to turn the direction in reverse so that the downturned edges of the blades are leading. In the majority of fans, the fan's blades will turn clockwise.

The fan will draw cool air from the floor towards the ceiling, and then push down warmer air towards the ceiling. The fan doesn't blow on people, which means it doesn't cause a wind chill effect.

Advantages of a Ceiling Fan Installation

While it's tempting on a do-it-yourself approach in the case of ceiling fan installation in Portland, OR but it's equally important to be aware of the possible electrical load and wiring issues which could cause problems in the future.
